Improvements and changes in 0.4.0


G'day or night everybody. This post will mainly address a small rework of the characters menu and a few upcoming changes in version 0.4.0.
Note: This update will of course deliver new story events as well. 

As I stated a few times: I don't want to throw Love Castaways into a perpetual state of reworks but I promised that all old events will improve to match the current art direction one day. This also applies to UI and thus, I changed the old character choice panel for something in my opinion much nicer to look at. 

Comparing the old character menu with the new one:

The new menu features reworked images with much higher quality, symmetrical 2-5 columns to look better when new characters arrive and what may be most important for new players: hiding characters that appear later in the story until the first event that shows them is completed. Unnecessary texts and additional return button were also thrown away for clarity.

The old font was changed to something more appealing and easier to read in a small square.


Besides the character menu getting a small lifting, the first main event that introduces MC's father will be reworked with small additions in the script, later events will have a graphical rework as well but I'm still focusing mostly on a new story. Each update will probably feature 1 or 2 old events getting a better art style. New screenshots will be included in the upcoming sneak peeks that will be released soon.
Next on the list will be all school events that arguably look the worst when compared to the best-looking events.

Version 0.4.0 will be relatively big and will require some time to finish and test every event. Hopefully, it will become available somewhere after New Year but it heavily depends on my free time. 

As always, thank you very much for your support. I appreciate it.
